Excerpt
As soon as Sydney Smith died, his widow began to accumulate material for
her husband’s biography. She did not live to see the work accomplished, but
she enjoined in her will that some record of his life should be written.
The duty was undertaken by his daughter, Saba Lady Holland, who in 1855
published A Memoir of the Reverend Sydney Smith. To this memoir was
subjoined a volume of extracts from his letters, compiled by his friend and
admirer Mrs. Austin.
